This year, Paolo Ciabatti takes on a new challenge as he becomes the General Manager of Ducati Corse Off-Road, the new division of the manufacturer dedicated to motocross. But could the off-road segment expand in the future and enter rally-raid events like the Dakar?

Ciabatti addressed this question in an interview with AS, starting by recalling Ducati’s achievements in MotoGP in 2023: ‘Last year was amazing in MotoGP with 17 victories, 17 pole positions, all of this with six different riders’.

Regarding his move to the off-road project, Ciabatti explained: ‘You reach a point in your life where you need something new to do with more enthusiasm. At 66 years old, although MotoGP has given me a lot, especially because winning two World Championships was a great success in my career, I like to put my experience into a totally new project in which Ducati will start in a world that did not exist in our history, and where we hope to achieve the successes we have had in MotoGP’.

This year, Ducati will be participating in the Italian Motocross Championship to prepare for entry into the MXGP World Championship and AMA Supercross. As for entering the Dakar Rally in the future, Ciabatti stated: ‘We don’t have a plan at the moment to enter the Dakar, but when you have a bike with 450 cubic centimeters… it is likely that there is that possibility to consider. But it is a plan that does not exist at the moment. The Dakar is an interesting race to consider, and in recent days, I met with David Castera to learn how everything works so that I can gain some experience’.
